We are excited for Lisa Highfill to be our keynote presenter on that day! Lisa wrote The Hyperdoc Handbook. Her keynote will highlight ways to use technology to help maximize time with students and help build better relationships, shift our thinking away from the ways we have always done things, and how we can get students to collaborate and communicate more. She will also be leading breakout sessions on Hyperdocs, Hyperdoc Maps, and Multimedia Text sets.
